Home is where the heart is....

We've kinda done this before...but with alot of "newbies", and that's a good thing, lots of us don't know where the other guy, or gal,(Ms. carfreak and Mom), is from. How about posting the state you live in, city or town IF you are comfortable with disclosing it, tell us what's great and bad about your area and where you'd like to live if different?For me, it's Phoenix, Arizona...LA's most eastern suburb. It's hot most of the time, and hotter the rest. I love the city part of it, the weather most the time. If I could live anywhere, I'd be in southern California in a moment!

yeah that big river you call a water supply comes from us up here......I am just a guy who likes long walks in the snow, and romantic dinners at the local IHOP. well not really, in fact Colorado has a desert climate, except their are some rain forests in the mountains they get multiple rains during the day, in the winter, of course snow. this is the only place where it can get as hot as southern New Mexico in the summer, and as cold as Alaska in the winter ha ha. or this year, as hot as southern New Mexico in the winter ha ha ha. we also have some of the best weather casters in the U.S...... if you lived here you'd know why. I'm only 17 but plan to have a career in the automotive industry, so look for me.................. My name is Andrew and I'd like to say..... "howdy do?"

oh one last thing that i forgot to mention,.... I'm INCREDIBLY good- looking.

I live in a small town of 600 in Indiana, 50 miles east southeast of Indianapolis. We have wonderful weather from April to October, but after that it all just goes to crap. From November to March it's usually cloudy, cold and miserable. This last winter we had tornadoes in January and then snow in March. But; that's what I like about Indiana. Variety.

well i live in good ole' misery, er...i mean missouri. the city i live in was harvester, then weldon springs, then st peters, then st charles and now its cottleville. its about 45 minutes west of st louis straight down I-70 or US 40-61, your choice.

the thing that i love about the state is that i can go an hour in any direction and leave civilization completly behind. i also like the fact that i can expierence all 4 seasons.

the only thing i don't like is that i usually expierence all the seasons in the span of about a week.

I lost the lease on my old apt. and I'm currently looking for a new one in Boston. I like the city, the people, the activities--I hate the price, 1700/mo for <500 square feet + heat/hw/electricity/cable.

in souther cali you can get a really nice apartment for 1200/mo right on the beach so that must be some prime real estate to be worth more than beach property.

California's ocean front is downright affordable...lol..they've got HUNDREDS OF MILES of unused beachfront.

Well the places I'm looking are niceish. YOu can get a studio of about 300 square feet for 1000/mo, but they're hell-holes. So I'm looking for a 1br right in the city on a nice street. Here's a shot of the street/area I'm looking at.

It's not that narrow...the street is about 3 carlenghts wide plus the two rows of parked cars..so 5. I know because people are constantly double-parked on both sides of the road and you have to get in between the 4 parked cars lI love this street, and the city, everything is 200 years old and rock solid.

That's where I want to end up in a couple of years. Right now, I'm "doing time" here in DC. Well, actually I can't afford to live in DC now that I'm out on my own, so I live in the YUPPY suburbs in N. Virginia. Am I a yuppie? More than I want to admit to. Do I still get my hands greasy? You're damn right I do!
